I have a tele project on the workbench. This tele will
have a Rio Grande Dirty Harry in the bridge position
and a mini humbucker in the neck position.

Now, the question is:
which pot and cap to use?

According to Rio Grande website, Dirty Harry is essentially
a P-90 pickup. (12K) If I'm not mistaken, P-90s usually work
with 500K pots and .022 cap (normal Gibson setup).
Will this be true for this Rio Grande tele pickup?

Gibson Mini-HBs were also teamed with 500K pots and .022uf caps. So, yes, go with these values.
